The Globalist

Traducción al español (con inteligencia artificial) de los primeros minutos de la emisión "The war of the worlds" de Orson Welles.

En el verano de 2017, un desacuerdo entre vecinos árabes  estuvo a punto de derivar en un conflicto militar. Hoy se ha convertido  en una batalla de derechos deportivos que alcanza a las principales  competiciones internacionales, también a la Liga española de fútbol.

Radio Internacional de China es la única entidad, a nivel estatal, que se dedica a la transmisión radial al exterior desde la República Popular China. ¿Cómo se estableció la CRI? y ¿Qué camino de desarrollo ha recorrido?  En el siguiente programa emitido en 1987 se repasa esa historia, que  nos permite conocer los primeros pasos de China en el mundo de la  transmisión al exterior.

For World Radio Day 2022, BBC tune in to radio stations around the world that connect communities, spark conversations, keep traditions  alive and give a voice to their listeners. From Aboriginal Koori Radio  in Australia to a community station in India run by rural women from the  lowest Dalit caste, the airwaves carry intimate wisdom, vital  knowledge, beats and tunes that keep reminding us who we are.

We may think we live in a digital age, but only half the world is  currently online. Across the globe, small radio stations bind remote  communities, play a dazzling array of music, educate, entertain and  empower people to make change. Cameroon’s Radio Taboo, in a remote  rainforest village 100 miles off the grid, relies on solar power; its  journalists and engineers are all local men and women. Radio Civic  Sfantu Gheorghe in the Danube Delta preserves the history of the  community. Tamil Nadu’s Kadal Osai (“the sound of the ocean”) broadcasts  to local fishermen about weather, fishing techniques—and climate  change. In Bolivia, Radio Pio Doce is one of the last remaining stations  founded in the 1950s to organise mostly indigenous tin miners against  successive dictatorships. And KTNN, the Voice of the Navajo Nation,  helps lift its listeners’ spirits in a time of loss and grief. Produced by David Goren Presented by Maria Margaronis.

Radio Exterior de España cumple 80 años en 2022. Aunque no recibió  ese nombre hasta 1978, las emisiones en onda corta de Radio Nacional  comenzaron de forma regular el 15 de marzo de 1942. Durante los años de  la guerra fría tuvo una doble función: combatir el comunismo y servir de  nexo de unión entre los emigrantes españoles y sus familias. Tras la restauración de la democracia en España y la caída del bloque  soviético, Radio Exterior de España abandonó esa función combativa y el  tono paternalista con sus ciudadanos en el extranjero para dar a  conocer, en diez idiomas, la realidad de nuestro país en el mundo.  Aunque los satélites de comunicaciones primero, e Internet más tarde,  favorecieron la calidad sonora y el alcance de sus programas, la emisora  internacional de Radio Nacional de España no piensa abandonar la onda  corta hasta que esas nuevas tecnologías se hayan implantado  mayoritariamente en Iberoamérica y otros rincones del planeta que son  objetivo prioritario de sus emisiones. Este programa recoge, a modo de álbum sonoro, algunos de los  testimonios históricos de Radio Exterior y de otras emisoras en onda  corta con las que compitió en los momentos más críticos de sus 80 años  de vida. Este programa fue realizado para el 70 aniversario en 2012 y en el 80  aniversario en 2022 se ha actualizado con lo ocurrido en los últimos  años.

US and West German intelligence agencies spied on governments across  the world for decades using a Swiss encryption firm, a new investigation  has claimed. Hundreds of countries used Crypto AG equipment to  protect their top secrets but a probe has found the firm was covertly  owned by the CIA and German spy agency BND. But,  by rigging the equipment, American and Western German intelligence  agents were able to listen in on their allies and enemies. The  revelation came from a classified CIA report that was obtained by German  public broadcaster ZDF. It worked with the Washington Post to break the  story. ZDF's Washington bureau chief Elmar Theveßen told  Euronews it was likely the "biggest intelligence eavesdropping operation  of the past 60 years". He said US and West German intelligence  agencies used the programme from 1970 to 1993, with the CIA continuing  alone until around 2018. Theveßen  said it was used, for example, to listen in to what was happening  during Argentina's military dictatorship in the 1970s. "The US  and Germany were able to basically know everything about what was going  on with regards to critics of the regime," he said. "More than  30,000 people were killed back then. They just disappeared and Germany  and the US knew exactly what happened through listening in to these  communications and, of course, this prompts the big ethical question:  why didn't they do anything about it?" Theveßen also claimed  intelligence agencies shared information with then UK Prime Minister  Margaret Thatcher that could have prevented the Falklands War.
